Chapter 236: Settled

Liu Meibao didn't know what happened next, or all her attention was occupied by one pain after another.

The doors closed layer by layer, cutting off the hustle and bustle outside, and most likely, more blood.

Liu Meibao didn't care about trying to figure out how to analyze how to deal with this kind of thing, her only thought was that neither this child nor herself could have an accident.

"Did he come back?" In the interval of labor pain, Liu Meibao grabbed Guiziniang's hand tightly and asked.

"It's coming, it's coming." Guiziniang helped her wipe the sweat from her head and said.

That is, it hasn't come back yet...

"Mabel, I'm here." Zhou Liangyu's voice came from outside, with an unconcealed anxiety and worry.

"Brother, I'm fine." Liu Meibao raised her voice and said, before the words fell, another burst of pain hit, and the end tone turned into a moan.

Outside the door, Zhou Liangyu eagerly inquired and had an argument with the servant.

"Young Master Cousin, it's okay, it's all like this, you can't go in."

"Young Master Cousin, don't lead your wife to talk, it's good to keep some spirit."

After a few words, Zhou Liangyu really quieted down.

"Mabel, I'm right here, you... Don't be afraid. He exclaimed.

Liu Meibao was in severe pain, and the sweat on her head was layer after layer, holding Guiziniang's hand tightly.

"Auntie, am I born prematurely?" She said intermittently.

"What a premature birth, my wife's delivery in early September, this birth..."Guizi Niang said softly.

"Yes, yes, it's normal for half a month before and after..."Liu Meibao took her words and said, and squeezed out a weak smile, "Look, I forgot about this, so people say... The healer does not heal himself...."

The maids and servants in the house were nervously on standby, and the two midwives who had already lived at home calmly instructed them to do things.

"Open the cabinet and windows...", Guizi Niang shouted at everyone again.

The servants panicked, and began to crack open everything that had a door.

Liu Meibao was in pain for a while. Slumped in bed.

"How long will it take to give birth," she asked.

The noble son and mother look at the midwife.

The midwife looked at it.

"If it's fast, it'll be about the second half of the night." She said.

So long...

"Does it hurt all the time?" She asked, gasping for breath.

"Women come like this, this is joy, it is a good thing, and I am not afraid." Guizi Niang stroked her forehead and said softly.

That's it, Liu Meibao can't wait to faint, she knows that giving birth to a child hurts, but this pain is unimaginable if she doesn't experience it herself, and it hurts so long.

"Ma'am. Eat something. The servant woman came in with egg noodles.

Liu Meibao was screaming all over her body after the pain, but she gritted her teeth and sat up.

"I'll eat." She opened her mouth.

Guizi Niang fed her personally.

After eating a few bites, the labor pain began again, and after the labor pain passed, Liu Meibao sat up and ate again, and the eating stopped, and it took half an hour to finish this bowl of noodles.

It was completely dark.

Liu Meibao was lying on the bed, her clothes were already wet with sweat after a wave of pain, she looked out the window with her head sideways and a little blankly, as if she heard the noise outside, and the bed seemed to be shaking.

"Was there an earthquake?" She couldn't help but mutter.

"How so?" Guizi Niang heard it and said.

But she couldn't help but look at her feet again. If that's right, the ground is really shaking.....

People inside and outside the house noticed it. Everyone couldn't help but look out, and at some point, half of the sky in Fucheng lit up like a fire, and it looked particularly dazzling in this night.

But soon everyone was attracted by Liu Meibao's labor pain in the house, and they no longer cared about this, no matter how much trouble was made outside, there were elite soldiers sent by Lu Yan, and this Conduct Mansion was the most stable place.

"Brother." Liu Meibao thought of something. Gather your strength and shout.

"I'm here." Zhou Liangyu immediately replied outside, and the person seemed to be standing under the window.

"At home. . . How's it going at home..."Liu Meibao asked with a raised voice.

Lu Yan has no relatives, and the closest one is Song Sanniang's family. Today, they all dare to come to the Conduct Mansion, will the Zhou family in Xie County be affected by the pond fish?

"It's all right at home." Zhou Liangyu immediately replied, understanding what she was going to ask, "There are already soldiers guarding it." ”

Liu Meibao breathed a sigh of relief, and then she was stunned, it seemed that she was the only one who was hidden.

More intense labor pains hit, Liu Meibao clung to the futon, and her face turned pale.

"Don't be afraid, ma'am, ma'am." Guizi Niang held her hand tightly, and the servants surrounded her to wipe her sweat, "It's fast, it's fast.."

This night, many people had no sleep.

"Tomorrow will be the third day," murmured many of the people who were hiding behind closed doors and did not dare to come out, looking out at the dark night.

I wonder if the chaos in the city can really be calmed down after the three-day deadline?

"Three days? This is the wish of all the gentry in Hezhong Province, it represents the hearts of the people, and we are not Tartar bandits, how dare he Lu Yan? Is it the enemy of the entire Hedong Shiren? The magnates of the big clan sitting in the courtyard of the mansion laughed and said, "Look how he ends!" ”

The wine and food were constantly put on the table, and the singing and dancing beauty walked through it, enjoying it until it was getting dark.

Just when everyone was drunk and about to disperse, there was a faint tremor under their feet.

"Master, master, it's not good."

"The officers and soldiers surrounded the city gates.."

"The officers and soldiers have entered the city!"

People pouring out from everywhere to prepare for a new round of disturbances were also shocked by the scene before them, and groups of heavily armed soldiers were entering the city through the four gates.

In the prefect's yamen, it is said that the unconscious prefect is circling around the house, moving neatly, his steps are like the wind, and the prefect's wife who only turns is dizzy.

"I said you can just sit there for a while?" She had to stop her husband.

"What does he want to do? What does he want to do? Last night, I mobilized troops and horses to besiege the city...", the prefect said without pulling his beard.

"It doesn't matter what he does, you're sick anyway." The prefect said.

The prefect snorted, and was about to say something, when the prefect's wife suddenly booed him.

"Listen." She gestured out.

The prefect held his breath and tilted his ears.

Outside, there was the sound of neat footsteps running, and shouting one after another.

"The Lord of Ethics has an order, and the three-day period has passed."

"The Lord of Ethics enters the city to quell the chaos, and the precepts are solemn and quiet."

"When the Hedong soldiers enter the city, the people don't need to be alarmed."

"When the salt patrol enters the city, the people need not be alarmed."

All the people who were hiding in their homes clearly heard the loud and majestic proclamation one after another. The sound of neat footsteps made a loud noise through the streets, which seemed to make the ground of the whole city tremble.

"He, how many people did he come?" The prefect couldn't help but ask in a trembling voice.

The house slaves and ruffians of the various families who had gathered in the streets looked at the approaching soldiers, fully armoured, and unsheathed with swords and guns, and their faces were frightened, and they retreated step by step. With one announcement after another, I finally couldn't help but run wildly.

"There are 10,000 people!"

10,000 people? Everyone who got the news turned pale, when did the ethics of the five thousand soldiers have 10,000 soldiers under them? And they are well-equipped and well-trained, and everyone carries with them the bloody aura that has experienced the killing.

"What does he want to do? Does he want to rebel? ”

"Lang Lang, does he want to kill people?"

"Such tyrannical people, can there be a king in their eyes?"

"In the past, there were eunuchs who were rampant, and now there are tyrannical generals who plague the people, and the life and death of the big husband are small, and the righteousness is great. We will ask for the lives of the people and drive away evil spirits. Though he will die, he will not care..."

"Lu Yan's power is retrograde, and we should be calm and not afraid."

With the heavy troops entering the city, the people who had originally retreated gathered again, facing these soldiers coming from all directions, shouting slogans, holding big-character posters, and pulling banners. Rushing over.

The prefect was attached to the closed gate of the yamen without any image, and the official mansion was the place where the most people gathered, and it was also the first place where Lu Yan's officers and soldiers went after entering the city. At this time, the two sides were facing off fiercely.

"The officers and soldiers have killed people, and the officers and soldiers have slaughtered the people"

The crowd shouted wildly, and seeing that the soldiers who were standing did not move, stones and clubs began to fly out of the crowd and smash them.

"There is an order for conduct, the three-day deadline has passed, the Hedong soldiers have entered the city, the whole city is under martial law, and you should disperse as soon as possible, otherwise the market will gather people to smash it and riot, and there will be no forgiveness for killing." A soldier shouted.

But his words were not taken seriously, the law was not held accountable, and the noisy crowd was still agitating more and more boiling.

The soldiers were expressionless, allowing stones and other objects to fall on their bodies.

Enough was shouted three times.

"How dare he..."The prefect inside muttered to himself in a pale trembling voice, obviously frightened by the sentence that there is no forgiveness.

Before his words fell, he heard a cannon sound from nowhere, and with this sound, the soldiers who had been standing shouted in unison.

"Counterinsurgency!"

"Catch the traitor!"

"Kill!"

The wolf-like soldiers pounced on the crowd, and the exclamations suddenly rang out.

"Murder! The Hedong Army has killed people! ”

The street was in chaos, and the soldiers' swords and guns stabbed out neatly and mechanically, retracted, and stabbed again, and those who were stabbed and trampled on soon fell down, and the bright red blood spread on the ground in an instant.

The prefect's eyes darkened, and he fell crookedly on the door panel.

As the sun rises, the atmosphere in the inner house of the Ethics Mansion becomes more and more tense.

"Not born yet? Why haven't you given birth yet? Zhou Liangyu, who had stood outside the house all night, anxiously grabbed the window lattice, eager to break the window and enter.

"Mrs., Mrs.." The noble lady and the midwife and the midwife surrounded Liu Meibao sweating profusely, shouting one by one, "Madam, work harder."

Like Liu Meibao, who has been soaked in water, her face is as white as a layer of tissue paper at this time, if it weren't for the undulating chest to prove that she is still angry, I am afraid that she will be regarded as a dead person.

"I... I don't have the strength to speak...."She closed her eyes and her lips squirmed to speak, but she didn't really have the strength to say it, "Give me oxytocin... Let's have a laparotomy...."

"Grandma, what should I do?" The servant women were about to cry, looking at the noble son.

Guiziniang's expression was no better than theirs, holding Liu Meibao's hand tightly.

"Your Excellency is back!" There was a shout from outside.

The room was full of people, and the door was slammed open, and a tall figure rushed in with a bloody breath.

"Mabel, I'm back."

"Mabel, I promise you, I'm back."

Liu Meibao tightly held the big hand in her hand, and used her last strength to let out a scream, and a crisp baby's cry pierced the room and rushed straight outside.
